Agronomists and economists look for common ground during the ongoing debate about soil health and its effect on profitability ...

Researchers at the University of California, Riverside, have uncovered how to manipulate electrical flow through crystalline ...

Soil electrical conductivity (EC), exchangeable sodium (Na +) and potassium (K +) contents and pH were evaluated. In addition, the number of commercial fruits and yield were determined. The ...

Carbon fibers have promising applications in the efficient transmission of electric power with less resource consumption. Laser graphitization of the mesophase pitch-based carbon fiber (MPCF) was ...

We report on the fabrication of a novel class of lightweight materials, polyimide–graphene nanocomposites (0.01–5 vol %), with tunable electrical conductivity. The graphene–polyimide nanocomposites ...

The channel model incorporates the impact of soil conductivity, is found in better agreement with the measurement data than models without soil conductivity included. It is therefore concluded that ...

The electrical conductivity of porous media has received more and more attention in the fields of geophysics and petroleum engineering. In this study, a Monte Carlo method, combined with fractal ...

The thermal and electrical characteristics of a stress grading system are studied by simulations and measurements of the electric field and temperature distributions in the overhang region of a form ...

DURING recent years a number of experimental investigations of the physics of the oxide-coated cathode have taken the form of determinations of the thermionic and electrical properties of the ...

Voters will choose a member of the Board of Supervisors for the Crescent Soil and Water Conservation District for the first time in the district’s history.
